Sin distanced us from God, but as believers, it is inexcusable to be intentionally distant from God. Everything we have is his and everything we do is for him. 

John 15:4 says, "4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me." 

Believers in Jesus must abide in Christ daily. We must continually seek the presence of God.
